Sunshine - Charlie Heat & Ant Beale

tempo: 75 bpm bpm range: 70 bpm  to  75 bpm ,  75 bpm  to  80 bpm the dj's take: Song #3 in episode LIV (5:05): And song #6 in our 32XL mix (13:21): Found this one via youtube / spotify deep dive after hearing Kanye's Facts (Charlie Heat version) . I think the hook comes from a Natasha Bedingfield track, right? Anyway, solid choice for a pool party or a bbq where the people don't mind a little vulgarity in the lyrics. Try mixing with: Man Down - Rihanna Savage Love - Jawsh 685 x Jason Derulo SAD! - XXXTentacion Back To You - Louis Tomlinson ft. Bebe Rexha & Digital Farm Animals Power - Kanye West All The Above - Maino ft.

Man Down - Rihanna

tempo: 78 bpm bpm range:   75 bpm  to  80 bpm The DJ's Take: Song #2 in episode LIV (1:55): Perfect hook to play during a dodgeball tournament when a player goes down (followed by the infamous reggaeton horn ).

Elevated - Wiz Khalifa

tempo: 69 bpm bpm range: 65 bpm to 70 bpm The DJ's Take:  Song #8 in  Episode 41  (12:31): Can we just call this iSay , Part II? Fun game - listen to that song and this one in the mix and guess where the transition is. May be tougher than you think.

Savage Love (Laxed - Siren Beat) - Jawsh 685 x Jason Derulo

tempo: 75 bpm bpm range:   70 bpm  to  75 bpm ,  75 bpm  to  80 bpm the dj's take: Batting leadoff in episode LIV : One of those songs that I know is not meant for people my age. But if you spin pop music, pretty hard to avoid. Probably would've enjoyed it as a middle schooler, just like Watermelon Airheads and Super Nintendo. That transition into Man Down is like butter. Similar island vibes are very evident. Strong list of key-compatible tracks between 70 and 75 bpm: All Night - The Vamps & Matoma Broccoli - D.R.A.M. ft. Lil Yachty Low Life - Future + The Weeknd RGF Island - Fetty Wap Blood On the Money - Future Trophies - Drake Give Me A Try - Sizzla Bottoms Up - Trey Songz BedRock - Young Money Got Your Back - T.I. ft.
